Why do I enjoy volunteering & working charity events? It’s quite simple, really. I feel that a lot of us take our situations in life for granted. Stepping outside of our own life, bubble, financial situation and seeing how blessed most of us really are is a huge eye opener. When opportunities present themselves to get involved in a non-profit, charity event, volunteering or fundraising for a cause- we all should jump on these opportunities. Knowing you’ve helped make a huge difference simply by showing up and doing what we love, is more gratifying than any amount of money we could have earned in those few hours, days, Etc. I’d rather leave an event or outing knowing I’ve made a difference than leave with a pocket full of cash. Knowing I’ve had a hand in making someone’s life better is absolutely gratifying and life altering. Love thy neighbor. No matter how close or far that neighbor may be. Seeing the bigger picture and being a part of the betterment of said picture, is more rewarding and heart filling than I could put into words. Thank you to FAM for everything y’all represent and everything we get to be a part of!
